DROWNING
 by Backstreet Boys

[INTRO]
B F# G#m  B  E   F#sus F#
     Ohh...  Yeah

[VERSE]
A                    E
Don't pretend you're sorry
              F#m
I know you're not
                        D
You know you've got the power
   E               A
To make me weak inside
A                  E
Girl, you leave me breathless
         F#m
But it's okay
                     D
'Cause you are my survival
    D
Now hear me say

[PRE-CHORUS]
Bm       C#m
I can't imagine
D                 E
Life without your love
Bm      C#m
Even forever
      D               E
Don't seem like long enough

[CHORUS]
 B
'Cause every time I breathe, 
           F#
I take you in
                    G#m
And my heart beats again
B             E
Baby, I can't help it
            F#sus    F#      B
You keep me drowning in your love
B                        F#
Every time I try to rise above
                  G#m
I'm swept away by love
B             E
Baby, I can't help it
            F#sus    F#      B
You keep me drowning in your love

[VERSE]
A           E
Maybe I'm a drifter
      F#m
Maybe not
                        D
'Cause I have known the safety
            E              A
Of floating freely in your arms
    A                    E
And I don't need another lifeline
             F#m
It's not for me
                    D
'Cause only you can save me
    D
Oh, can't you see?

Don't seem like long enough, yeah
